The cover of nr.6, 2003.01, is the winning entry of a magazine cover contest won by Zuzanna Czyz-Mazurkiewicz.

2 + 3D is a new polish design magazine in the tradition of the venerable publication Projekt
which had reached the end of its time, with a very fresh outlook on both polish and international trends.

I met some of the staff (Jacek Mrowczyk, the 2D editor, Kuba Sowinski, the graphic designer, Ewa Wrubel and Zdzislaw Schubert, two freelancers)
in Warsaw during the 2002 Poster Biennale, and was impressed by
their speed, energy and good cheer.

I will present below only the part of the magazine concerning posters, maybe one sixth of the total volume,
with at least one sizable article on them in each number, the rest being typography, CD covers, furniture, glassware, logos
and other lesser crafts that run under the heading Design. Still, I am greatful for what they are doing for posters,
and realize that the good old days of Das Plakat, Gebrauchsgraphik, PlakatJournal and Affiche are over, and they are
practically the only one to keep the banner up (until the chinese publications become wider known).

I like their no-nonsense, concentrated approach and magazine design, their extensive calendar of fairs,
competitions, exhibitions in Poland and abroad, and wish they would have an all english edition one day.

KorekThe posters of Wojciech "Korek" Korkuc which are hung up around town cause a stir. You can't pass them by without being struck
by their loud ideas. Korek's opinion is that controversy excites attention, and that an effective poster is one that gets noticed.
